McIlhenny Company is a United States-based manufacturer best known for the TABASCO brand of pepper sauces. Founded in 1868 on Avery Island, Louisiana, the business remains family-owned and operates from the same site. Its flagship Original Red Pepper Sauce is produced from three ingredients—distilled vinegar, peppers, and salt—and the TABASCO Family of Flavors now includes eight pepper sauce varieties to cover a range of heat and flavor profiles. The company sits in the condiment manufacturing space, serving a global consumer base. In early 2026, it launched ABSOLUT TABASCO in collaboration with Absolut Vodka, expanding its brand into a cross-category product.
